ANOTHER highly industrious Fairyhouse Easter Festival for Willie Mullins concluded with a Grade 2 double which began when Stormy Ireland made a successful return to the trainer with a tremendously brave display in the Underwriting Exchange Hurdle over two and a half miles.

A multiple graded and listed winner for Mullins, this seven-year-old struggled for form in four starts for Paul Nicholls but following her £75,000 sale earlier this year she returned to the champion trainer and was restored to her former glories.
